Chapter 481: Backlash
Chapter 481: Backlash
Pu Donghuang's body was a little unstable.
Pu Qingyin stared wide-eyed, looking at the debris on the ground.
"No! When I saw the compass before, it looked like it was made of metal. Why is it now like a pool of weathered stones?"
"Father, are you okay?"
Immediately after that, she turned her gaze on Pu Donghuang again.
Seeing Pu Donghuang's body became extremely weak, she immediately put aside all the messy thoughts, rushed up quickly, held Pu Donghuang with her hand, and shouted anxiously.
"He is okay. He just glanced at the secret and got a backlash from unknown forces. You take him to the table and let him rest for a while."
Ye Bei then walked toward the square table in the middle of the lobby.
But Pu Qingyin next to him didn't notice at all that when Ye Bei was talking about "unknown power", his eyes that had been indifferent to the extreme flashed slightly because it was also the power that kept Ye Bei from finding the truth.
"Yes!"
Pu Qingyin didn't think too much before supporting Pu Donghuang and walking towards the table.
In the end, a lot of energy was squandered, and Pu Donghuang sat on the opposite side of Ye Bei.
"Ye Bei, what's the matter with my father? He is already very old. If something happens, I won't spare you."
Until Pu Donghuang sat down, Pu Qingyin recovered a little. But her first reaction was to glare at Ye Bei and shouted in a low voice.
In her concept, all the things that were beyond logic that she saw today must have been caused by the boy in a white dress in front of her.
But Pu Donghuang, who had already sat down, said unceremoniously, "Qingyin, don't be rude!"
"Father, then you should always tell me what's going on, right?" Pu Qingyin's eyes were a little red.
Pu Donghuang didn't answer and looked towards Ye Bei with that somewhat tired gaze. After seeing Ye Bei sitting opposite and holding a folding fan with a calm expression on his face, he nodded gently.
"Okay! Qingyin, it's time to tell you some things."
"Father, tell me, I'll listen!" Pu Qingyin nodded her head.
"Actually, Sir and I are not laymen in this world at all. I believe you have already found out over the years. Since the day I adopted you, my appearance has not changed. These mere twenty years have not left many marks on my body. And this gentleman, even more so, has lived for tens of thousands of years, even hundreds of thousands of years, or hundreds of millions of years."
Pu Donghuang murmured with a bit of emotion in his eyes, but it was more of a kind of sadness.
But in Pu Qingyin's ears, it was completely different.
Pu Qingyin lived in this era. Moreover, she had always received the education of this era.
After listening, she was stunned, and then she shook her head again and again, "Father, are you confused? The entire Chinese civilization is only five thousand years old. Even the earliest human beings are only tens of thousands of years Can Ye Bei really live hundreds of thousands of years?"
To this, Pu Donghuang had expected it.
"I know that even if I say it, you won't believe it, but it doesn't matter... Qingyin, think about it, have all the things you seen today already exceeded your imagination?"
"This"
What happened in this lobby before appeared clearly in Pu Qingyin's mind at this moment.
Yes!
From that moment on, everything was full of mystery and incredible.
Since that kind of magical power could appear, what else was unacceptable?
"I have hidden these secrets for decades. Every few years, I will adopt some children, mainly because I'm too lonely, and secondly, I want to learn more about the changes of the times through them. In those vast years, most of the children received backlashes and were depressed because of my calculation of heavenly secrets. But you are different. You are also very lucky, and one of the very few people who can help me meet this senior..."
When Pu Donghuang said this, his aura gradually recovered a lot.
But these things that he said, for a while, really couldn't be accepted by Pu Qingyin.
"So before, I let you get in touch with Sir! If you are lucky, maybe you can get some opportunities."
After talking about this, Pu Donghuang took a deep breath.
"But, but, I..."
Pu Qingyin was completely unable to recover. After holding her mouth for a long time, she suffocated such a sentence.
The amount of information was too large. She needed to digest it well first.
And Pu Donghuang also understood this, and continued, "Sir and I have something to say. Now that the sun and the moon are upside down, go to the door and watch. Don't let some chaos on the street spread around this house."
"Yes, father."
Pu Qingyin nodded before she walked towards the outside with a little dullness.
...
Pu Donghuang took the initiative to speak, "Sir, would you like a cup of tea?"
"No need." Ye Bei shook his head.
"Sir, are you still thinking about longevity?"
Ye Bei was holding a folding fan and holding chopsticks in the other hand, "I have lived for countless years. I also calculated it today, and the answer I got is almost the same as what you got."
"Oh? Then sir, you..." Pu Donghuang was slightly puzzled.
"Do you think I am indifferent?" Ye Bei didn't answer but ask rhetorically.
Pu Donghuang nodded again and again, "Of course, I have seen Sir many times, but at any time, Sir is always calm as if there is nothing in this world that can move Sir. And with Sir's change of emotions now is normal. Sir has experienced more and more things during these years of life, and Sir has also looked down on many things. Certain things are also unable to let Sir have the slightest ripple in Sir's heart."
"Then, when a person spends countless years searching for an answer and then understands that he will find it in a short time, what kind of mood should he have?" Ye Bei asked again.
"Uh!"
On the opposite side, Pu Donghuang was taken aback for a moment before he only felt that a cloud of sadness was spreading rapidly in this lobby.
